Two new energy efficient, wi-fi connected, and hyper quiet AC units by Windmill. https://windmillair.com/
Plenty of beach time and ocean swimming. Lucky to live in my hometown (Gloucester).
Free live music almost every evening on Cape Ann, complete with a sweet birthday serenade on Wednesday night by one of my very talented former students (now attending Berklee School of Music).
Mapping out my “in-between” time after retiring from public secondary education, launching a consulting gig, and wondering what’s next. Feels like freedom!
Lobster risotto cakes. And fresh crabmeat (I call it lobster’s sweeter cousin).
I’ve always-forever-always valued and loved your writing style Becca - it motivates me to put some of my own thoughts/observations together. Even if it’s on a cocktail napkin.
This is such a summer-flavored list of joys—and you a quintessentially summer person <3 I'm so glad you cherish your nearby ocean swimming; such a gift. And your in-between freedom sounds so good. Happiest summer birthday, retirement, and crabmeat!!!
Ruth! Thank YOU so much for reaching out—I'm so grateful you've written this book. I'm still in the early chapters (often reading while I feed my 5-month-old son), and I continue to be impressed by the rigor of your reporting and your clarity of thought. Will be recommending far and wide <3
Boymom just came in for me on Libby! but I think I need to send it to deliver later while I 1) finish Come & Get It by Kiley Reid (loving so far) and 2) start and finish Mothership: A Memoir of Wonder and Crisis by Greg Wrenn 🪸

Ahh! Just read about both titles and want to get my hands on them immediately. Just the description of Mothership gave me chills 🪸
